NHTSA Complaint #10615233 — 2011 DODGE CHARGER

ON 95 SOUTH IN MIDDLE OF RIGHT HAND LANE AUTO JUST DIES - FIRST RADIO - THEN HOT AIR BLOWS AND THEN COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN LEAVING ME NO HAZARD LIGHTS - HIGHWAY BUSY - CALLED 911 AND FHP AFTER 45 MINUTES ROAD RANGER CAME OUT - BECAUSE VEHICLE HAD LOCKED ITSELF DOWN UNABLE TO GET IT INTO NEUTRAL SO FHP HAD TO DRAG THE CAR INTO APEX SO THAT A FLATBED TRUCK COULD BE BROUGHT IN. I WAS ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY - CAR WAS COMPLETELY DARK - TIME WAS MIDNIGHT SO CARS WERE SPEEDING BY. I AM BEING TOLD ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY AND TIRE ROD DAMAGE. ALSO BECAUSE ROAD RANGER HAD TO MOVE MY CAR OFF HIGHWAY FOR SAFETY OF ALL - THERE WAS DAMAGE TO TIRE ROD AND DODGE SHOULD PAY FOR THIS AS IT IS A SYSTEM SITUATION WHEN ALTERNATOR GOES SYSTEM SHUTS DOWN. THE SITUATION WAS 10 TIMES MORE SERIOUS DUE TO THE COMPLETE SHUTDOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS AND BUSIEST HIGHWAYS IN SOUTH FLORIDA. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO TIME TO PULL OVER OR GET OFF THE ROAD. *TR
